Another opportunity for young cooks to cash in

Seventh- and eighth-graders with a culinary bent can win partial scholarships to Johnson & Wales University culinary school in Rhode Island, as well as other prizes, in the Healthy Heritage Recipe Contest, which seeks original, healthful recipes that reflect someone’s heritage. Students can enter on their own, or with the help of a parent or teacher.

Entry deadline is March 26; registration forms are online at healthykidschallenge. com/recipe.html; for more information, call 888-259-6287. The national competition is sponsored by Johnson & Wales and Healthy Kids Challenge, an organization that promotes healthful lifestyles for children.
